When a thermometer is quickly dipped in hot water, it won't do anything. If you leave the thermometer in the hot water, the temperature shown will read higher. The temperature shown will not exceed the temperature of the water.
The thermometer may have not reached 100 degrees because it wasn't left in the water long enough. Another possible reason is that maybe the water wasn't hot enough. It also depends on what type of water was put into the pot cold or hot.
It depends on how hot I want it to be. If I want regular out-of-the-tap hot water, I stick my finger in it quickly and then shout and wave my hand about when it's actually hot. If I need boiling water to be a certain temperature, I measure the temperature with a candying thermometer.

Hot water.
use insulation to keep the water hot for 40 minutes
That depends on how hot the water is in the cup. Use the thermometer to measure it and see.
A thermometer is used to measure the temperature of hot water.

Because it will bust.
You can measure the temperature of water using a thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the water and wait a few seconds for the reading to stabilize. The temperature displayed on the thermometer is the temperature of the water.

the termometre gets warmer
they dipped two wooden sticks in hot water and put it on their hair
The mercury level in a thermometer placed in a hot tub of water will rise as the temperature of the water increases. This is because the volume of liquid mercury expands with higher temperatures, causing it to climb up the measuring scale in the thermometer.
If you ever want to measure a temperature above 212 degrees, you're better off hanging the thermometer into the air in the oven. Since it's a hot-air oven, you want to measure the air. If it were a hot-water oven, you might prefer to measure water. But even then, what are you gonna do above 212, when the water goes away and all you have in there is steam ??
A thermometer is used to measure the temperature of air, indicating whether it is hot or cold. Temperature readings are typically displayed in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.
he fed him soup, then dipped his head in hot and cold water one then the other
